The "servcie engine soon" light doesn't come on because of an oil change. That means that you have a problem with the car. If the light is just ON steady, than its most likely EVAP system problem or 02 sensor issue. It could be numerous things causing that light to come on , but if the light is flashing, get the car to the dealer ASAP.

To reset Engine Oil light. Turn the ignition key to RUN with the engine off. Fully press and release the accelerator pedal three times within five seconds. If the Change Engine Oil light is flashing, the system is reset. The light will flash for up to 30 seconds or until the ignition is turned off. If the light comes on again and stays on for 30 seconds at the next ignition cycle, it did not reset. You will need to reset the system again.
